Lint cover

Lint cover is NOT removable which makes it overheating. I called customer service but the rep told me I will need to use the vacuum or something else to suck the ling out - SERIOUSLY???? Simple flip or unscrew cover works well so whoever decided to make it non-removable wasn't fully using their brain.

If I had written a review about this hair dryer 6 months ago, I would have written a glowing review, but now (1.5 years after I bought this hair dryer) my opinion has drastically changed.

I used this hair dryer for a full year with no problems. It was just the right size and weight, and it dried my hair quickly. I loved using the diffuser attachment to get great volume. A few months ago, the heat started to cut out. I always use it on High heat and High speed, but suddenly the heat was cutting in and out on its own. It wasn't because it was overheating as it would start doing this within the first 30-45 seconds of the dryer being on. I tolerated this for a while even though it slowed down my hair drying time. Then one day I noticed that when it was switching between hot and cold on its own, it was also sparking inside the dryer (I could see flashes inside the dryer in the mirror). Finally yesterday when it sparked I smelled a burning smell. I thought it was just hair on the brush, but after looking more closely I realized it had singed off a chunk, yes a chunk, of my hair... My hair is down to my mid back and now I have a chunk, about 2 cm wide, near the front of my head (thankfully still covered by hair because of where I part my hair), that is 1/4" long and singed orange. I consider myself very lucky that this hair dryer didn't burn my scalp, or set my whole head on fire...

If you are considering this hair dryer, don't! If you have this hair dryer, stop using it before this (or worse) happens to you!
